I did make several changes from the original chart. If anyone is interested in seeing those, just leave me a comment and I’ll post them.
Update to include my changes:
Hair:
CC Colonial Copper in place of La Tierra
CC Just Rust in place of Hickory Sticks
Skin (changed to better match the red hair):
CC Creamy Peach in place of Cobbled Peach
Wings:
Rainbow Gallery PB10 in place of Cloud
Added RG 032 Blending Filament to the Vintage Violet
Backstitched using RG PB62
Beads:
I did made changes to the beads in her hair & dress, but I unfortunately didn’t write those changes down in my notes and I don’t remember what they were.
This puts me at 5 completed projects in my 25 Project Challenge. My focus will now shift to finishing up my squares for Claudia as part of round 13 of the Fair & Square exchange. I have the main square about halfway finished already. It’s due to be mailed by June 15, so I’ve still got a couple of weeks to finish them up.
That’s it for now. Until next time …



















Awesome Mel!
She is gorgeous! M is one of the better Nora Corbett letters. I am waiting for T to see what that looks like.
She’s so pretty, Mel!
You know I love her. And that red hair, yes ma’am I will be ripping that off. That hair just looks so much better with the dress IMHO.
Please do post the changes, how am I supposed to copy you properly if you don’t? lol
Gorgeous!!!
I can’t wait for all my letters to arrive!
She’s very pretty!
Congrats, Mel! She’s gorgeous!
Very pretty fairy! Great job.
Gorgeous! Can hardly wait to see her “live” and in person!!
How georgous! She’s lovely. (I accidently hit the wrong star….should have been a 5+)
She’s lovely, congratulations
Yay! You finished her…she looks great. Love the changes…hair and more shimmer! I am hoping V turns out to be a neat pattern…
Your letter M finish is a real stunner – I love the changes, just gorgeous!
